You already have a gorgeous new website. Or you plan on building one.

That’s really great!

But are you thinking like a business owner? Your website is critical to your online business. So are you protecting it against security hacks, or updates gone wrong, or incompatibilities between plugins, or even the entire site going down?

You can’t afford to allow WordPress technical stuff to affect your “online presence”. You can fix and prevent almost all issues by following the lessons in this course.

I'll teach you the one-time changes needed to set a good foundation for your WordPress site, as well as the ongoing tasks you need to do regularly to double-check your site's health.

Here's what you'll learn:

Why WP maintenance is important: WordPress can really become bloated over time, and it’s not necessarily your fault. So it’s important to stay on top of things and make sure it’s running well.

How to set the right foundation from the start: The choices you make early on, when building the website, can vastly reduce the changes of problems later on. You can prevent security problems, or even complete downtime, if you use time-tested quality themes and plugins. Building your site right from the start will also make things easier to manage in the future. And if you already have a WP site, no worries, you can do a clean-up job now, replacing the problematic plugins with better ones.

How to do regular maintenance on a regular basis: We’ll be going, step-by-step, through what you need to do regularly to check up on things, to tune up your site, and to keep it that way.

How to fix bigger problems: If you already have serious problems with the site, I’ll try to explore some emergency measures that you can take.

And how to further improve the site once everything is running smoothly: Once the technical aspects are taken care of, we’ll explore how you can investigate more advanced stuff, to optimize your site even more.

And finally, I’m going to share some relevant questions I received from other WP site owners, and I’ll be sharing my answers with you.

WordPress is the leading content management system (CMS) on the web, powering over a quarter of the Internet. But combining it with poor hosting services, improper management, security attacks, and negligence, you get a slew of possible problems.

This course will take you step by step through all the maintenance tasks you need to work on, both when first setting up your site & on a regular basis. You'll also get PDF checklists with all these two sets of tasks!

By following all the recommendations in this course, you'll save money and stressful time by learning to properly manage your WordPress site yourself, in order to prevent security and functionality problems down the line.

This course is for responsible WordPress site owners who want to clean-up a problematic or outdated site, or who just want to build a well-oiled machine right from the start.

By enrolling in this course, you'll also be subscribed to the ForegroundWeb email newsletter (and immediately be able to download all the free guides & resources), if you aren't already subscribed.

"I found it easy to understand and helpful. You reinforced that there is a lot of work and attention these days that must be put into properly maintaining a website. I will certainly use the checklists, step by step, to improve my visibility." - Matt Baugh

"Thanks so much for all the great info! A good refresher and much more for me. It's good to get the latest on the security and learn about useful apps for my website. I need to get back to regular maintenance!" - Patricia Davidson
